I used to enjoy using my Pentax 67 in the days of film years ago, but I had never used Pentax 35mm cameras or lenses until I bought a Sony NEX body several years ago. I tried some M42 lenses (aided by the wonderful lens reviews here), and I became hooked. This is a panoramic shot (6 vertical images stitched) that I took last winter of the Koolau mountain range in Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden on Oahu, using a 35mm f/3.5 S-M-C Takumar on a Sony a7.

Hi Takaholic. Welcome to the Pentax forums. Glad that you found the forums helpful.

Welcome to the forums! That's a beautiful shot... now, all we have to do is convert you to Pentax cameras and our work is done

That said, the A7 is a marvellous camera, so...
